Title: camshafts
Post by: Omega Pixie on 02 September 2008, 15:47:11

Are the inlet and exhaust cams the same I asked not because I have mixed them up simply that I do not have faith in the last person to repair the car I have just had to take the head off to drill out a stud that was snapped off  with that and one loose bolt and one missing it is little wander that the exhaust manifold leaked and nearly sent us to sleep when driving home from Hampshire the other side of the engine the cam timing on the exhaust looks to be one tooth out advanced i think.

iirc they are numbered 1 to 4? Anybody?

Not unusuall to be a tooth out. Although obviously is should not be. My previous mig was similar. Get your self a locking kit for when you put it all back together. Its the only way.  ::)

Edited,
A hem.... of course i ment letterd  'obviously'  ::) ::) ::) ::) :-[
